56.2% of fans polled said they were feeling less positive about the club's financial position following the publication of the results, with 32.3% saying they felt about the same and 11.4% saying they now felt more positive.

Despite the club's debt being reported as standing at £87.2m compared to its year-ending-July 2009 high of £472.5m, 49.5% of fans said they were worried about the debt position and 21.3% said they were unsure. 29.1% said they were unworried.

We asked fans whether any aspects of the club accounts stood out or surprised them and, as shown by the word cloud above (you can view a bigger version here , the words that appear most often are in the bigger type), debt was the major issue on people's minds, with wages and money also featuring prominently.

Finally we asked what should be the club's priority going forward and getting back into the Champions League was the clear winner getting 54.8% of the vote ,with finding a resolution to the Anfield stadium issue second with 25.4% ahead of building the squad (16.4%) and developing young players (3.5%).
